All Women Are Crazy

You simply have to find the crazy that you can handle

All Women Are Crazy
Mackenzie Holmberg

All women are crazy.

Yeah, we know, but don't think that this article is about defending women by saying that men are the reason that all women are crazy (even though sometimes they play a role in it). Nope, this article is somewhat of an explanation for half the sh*t that we do that defines us as crazy.

Hormones

These little molecules are the cause of some major emotional outbursts. We have such limited control over these little guys and we ask ourselves all the time, why can't we get a grip on them? The can make women go from extremely pissed to a flood of tears. We cannot always blame them, but we are sorry that we can't always control them.

Expectations

Girls have always been dreamers, and that won't ever change. We have plans. We have dreamt of the perfect guy, house, job, etc., and we get (unnecessarily) upset when our plans don't work out. We're in the process of figuring out how to accept the reality of it all and sometimes all we need is a little time for that to set in. Some ladies never figure it out till later in life, and I'm sorry if you missed that memo.

Heartbreak

We watched a lot of princess movies growing up, and in none of them did they every get rejected or had their man leave them, or cheated on. How were we supposed to know that love isn't as easy as the movies played it out to be? When the heart gets hurt, it has two options: it can start to callous or it can bounce back and try again. Many women harden their hearts and become a challenge to love. Remember to be careful with the ones who chose to bounce back, because it wasn't easy for them to try again.

Media

Media plays a huge role in why women are so crazy. Media has boggled every women's mind. You must look this way, dress like this, but love yourself exactly how you are? Men want you to do this, or you will get a promotion if you dress like so. We want to please everyone and it's impossible.

Maturity

Some women simply aren't emotionally matured yet. They're still in the high school mentality. Always trying to be the most popular, most loved, the prettiest, the richest, etc. They simply haven't matured, and only time will tell when they will.

Feminism

Not all women actually agree with these modern feminist movements and ideas. Some of us still see the value in gender roles. That doesn't mean that women are not capable of certain jobs or tasks; they just aren't as expected out of women. We shouldn't limit people from pursuing their passions, but we don't need to change the whole system just because we need to make one person feel accepted. They mistake kindness as offensive gestures. They are the reason crazy has a negative connotation to it. Feminism has caused many crazy women to go insane.

So, yes, all of us are crazy, but crazy doesn't have to be a bad thing. You just have to simply find the crazy that you can handle. She's out there.

“You know, sometimes all you need is twenty seconds of insane courage. Just literally twenty seconds of just embarrassing bravery. And I promise you, something great will come of it.” Benjamin Mee, "We Bought A Zoo"

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
